A member asked:
What does increased vascularity in thyroid nodule mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Increased blood flow: There is more blood flow to the thyroid nodule than the surrounding thyroid tissue. Could represent an adenoma or tumor. Needle biopsies are frequently done for further evaluation if a nuclear scan is not helpful.
